FAQ
Should I book in advance?
Yes. Popular dates sell out, especially in peak season. Book online ahead of time. Live availability and prices are in the GetYourGuide widget on each tour page.
Is there a minimum age?
Minimum age is set by 4FLY RJ and shown when you book on GetYourGuide. Do not assume an infant can sit on a parent’s lap. Check the listing on the tour page, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com.
Can I cancel or rebook?
For flights booked on this site via GetYourGuide, cancellation and refunds follow the policy shown when you book. That is typically free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure for a full refund. The booking widget on the tour page is authoritative.
What are the weight and health restrictions?
Helicopters have strict weight-and-balance limits and passengers may be weighed at check-in. Limits vary by aircraft and are set by 4FLY RJ. See the GetYourGuide listing on the tour page, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Your safety comes first, and we always aim for a pleasant experience. If weather conditions prevent the flight, we will contact you immediately to reschedule at no extra cost or offer a full refund. Our experienced pilots monitor conditions closely and have your contact details in case of last minute changes.
Where do flights depart?
Flights are with 4FLY RJ at Jacarepaguá Airport, Av. Ayrton Senna 2541, R. D2, Hangar 20, Barra da Tijuca. Closed-door flights: arrive about 45 minutes before.
